Archiving and deleting of equipment master data in plant maintenance module
Hi,
Can anyone explain me the process to archive and delete the equipment master data in PM module using archiving tools.
I tried doing it thru t-code SARA, would be grateful if anyone can help me with the steps to follow to archive the equipment master data.
Thanks in advance,
Many thanks for your reply,
I tried doing the same in IDES, but unfortunately the archive file is not getting generated when i write it. I have clearly specified in the variant to create an archive file. Can you please explain how does the system generate an archive file. And also in the customizing " Archiving Object-Specific Customizing " techincal settings, i have maintained the production variant and have marked start automatically.
Please advise,
thanks again ,

Warranty Date field in the equipment master data
Hi everyone!
I wanted to display the warranty date field in the equipment master data (IE01). I have already made the configuration and added the additional tab and screen thru this path:
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service > Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service > Technical Objects > General Data > Set View Profile for Technical Objects
But still, the tab is not added and the warranty date field is not found in the "Define Field Selection for the Equipment Master Record". please help me with this. We need this data because we are not using serial numbering and warranty master data that's why a way to track the warranty date is thru this adjustment in the equipment master data screen.
Thank you very much.Marlon,
Make sure that you have assigned this specific profile to the Equipment category of the associated equipment that you are creating under SPRO > PM> Master data> tech object > Equipment > Equip category.

I was trying to archieve one equipment data in our sandbox system. My functional consultant has set the deletion flag on equipment to be deleted and then we are trying to run SARA tcode for Object PM_EQUI and defined variants needed.
Preprocessing went through fine next we had run Write Job that too completed successfully and there was a archive session created as well.

Can you please suggest what can be the issue ? I am clue less as this was my first experience with SARA Tcode.
Is there any howto document available that give step by step screenshot for archieving ?

PI 7.11 AAE- Archiving and deletion
Dear All,
I just want to get confirm on my understanding regarding AAE archiving and deletion.
We have 98% interfaces using only AAE in our landscape.
I had set up XMLDAS archiving for AAE ( After fixing so many issues ) which archives the AAE messages into the local file system. So no issues in that .
Now my requirements are,
1) I would like to keep only 7 days of data in the database and 100 days of data in the file system
2) I do not want to set up any rules for Archiving /Deletion. It means i would like to archive messages older than 7 days in the file system.
The steps are ( My understanding )
1) Set the persistence duration in NWA to 7 days . So only 7 days of data will be stored in table BC_MSG.
2) Set up the archival job in the background processing through RWB without ANY RULES. So all processed messages older than 7 days will be achieved in the file system. And Archive will come with default delete procedure as well hence Archived messages will be deleted from table BC_MSG.
3) Deactivate the delete job . If i have the active delete job in the background processing, it will delete all messages older than 7 days which i don want. The deletion of messages from BC_MSG will be taken care as part of archival job.
Is my understanding correct?
Thanks
RajeshHello, any know what did they do to delete the files from the file system after 100 days?
We have the same problem, when we deleted manualy some messages from SO AIX but they still appear from the RWB, and when we clic over them we get an error: ...... java.lang.Exception: XML DAS GET command failed with ErrorCode: 598; ErrorText: 598 GET: Error while accessing resource; response from archive store: 598 I/O Error java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/sap/PID/javaarch/archive/usr/sap/pid/x
Is there any way to delete messages without generating errors / inconcistencias? -
Abap code not working - deleting based on master data table information
Hi,
I wrote a piece of code earlier which is working and during test we found out that it will be hard for the support guys to maintain because it was hard coded and there is possibility that users will include more code nums in the future
sample code
DELETE it_source WHERE /M/SOURCE EQ 'USA' AND
/M/CODENUM NE '0999' AND
/MCODENUM NE '0888' AND.
Now I created a new InfoObject master data so that the support people can maintain the source and code number manually.
master data table - the codenum is the key.
XCODENUM XSOURCE
0999 IND01
0888 IND01
now I wrote this routine all the data gets deleted.
tables /M/PGICTABLE.
Data tab like /M/PGICTABLE occurs 0 with header line.
Select * from /M/PGICTABLE into table tab where objvers = 'A'.
if sy-subrc = 0.
LOOP at tab.
DELETE it_source WHERE /M/SOURCE EQ tab-XSOURCE AND /M/CODENUM NE tab-XCODENUM.
ENDLOOP.
Endif.
But when I chage the sign to EQ, I get opposite values , Not what I require.
DELETE it_source WHERE /M/SOURCE EQ tab-XSOURCE AND /M/CODENUM EQ tab-XCODENUM.
Cube table that I want to extract from
/M/SOURCE /M/CODENUM
IND01 0999
IND01 0888
IND01 0555
IND01 0444
FRF01 0111
I want to only the rows where the /M/CODENUM = 0999 and 0888 and i would also need FRF101
and the rows in bold should be deleted.
thanks
Edited by: Bhat Vaidya on Jun 17, 2010 12:38 PMIt's obvious why it deletes all the records. Debug & get your answer i wont spoon feed
Anyways on to achieve your requirement try this code:
DATA:
r_srce TYPE RANGE OF char5, "Range Table for Source
s_srce LIKE LINE OF r_srce,
r_code TYPE RANGE OF numc04,"Range table for Code
s_code LIKE LINE OF r_code.
s_srce-sign = s_code-sign = 'I'.
s_srce-option = s_code-option = 'EQ'.
* Populate the range tables using /M/PGICTABLE
LOOP AT itab INTO wa.
s_code-low = wa1-code.
s_srce-low = wa1-srce.
APPEND: s_code TO r_code,
s_srce TO r_srce.
ENDLOOP.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM:
r_code COMPARING ALL FIELDS,
r_srce COMPARING ALL FIELDS.
* Delete from Cube
DELETE it_source WHERE srce IN r_srce AND code IN r_code. -
Interface between Legacy and SAP for Equipment Master
Hello
I got a requirement where I need to develop a interface between legacy system and R/3 system for Equipment Master Data update in R/3. I am thinking of getting a Idoc file from Legacy and then update the changes or any new creation of Equipments in R/3. I found a standard BAPI for this BAPI_EQUIPMENT_CREATE/CHANGE. This BAPI use a strcture BAPI_ITOB for data record of IDoc. But I got more data from legacy except what we have in BAPI_ITOB. I got Partner Data, Classification data also for Equipments. I am thinking of copying the BAPI to a Z function module and modify the Idoc structure , message type and all to capture all the data and then do a update in same way as standard transaction IE01(Equipment Create) is doing in Batch Input. Do you think if there is any better way of doing this? I am not used to transaction BAPI . just wondering if we Can use that in someway to include our modification?
Thanks
Harkamal20,000 is on quite higher side for IDOC.
IBIP help doc says it needs 2 Kbyte for each record, i.e. 40 Mb for 20,000 rec. that should be ok. Since it has structures for Partner & classification data , I don't think u need to modify the BAPI.
Transaction IE01 - Create equipment
Transaction IE02 - Change equipment
Structure - IBIPEQUI Equipment record
|-> IBIPNSTA New status profile if necessary
|->> IBIPSTAT User status records
|->> IBIPDOCU Doc. from Doc. management system
|->> IBIPPART Partner details (comment below)
|-->> IBIPTEXT (see comment below)
for long text: TEXT_MARK = " " empty
for internal comment: TEXT_MARK = "1"
|-->> IBIPCLAS Classification record (eqpmt class)
|-->> IBIPFEAT Classification characteristics,
ie. features for the class

Enhancement for Equipment master data
Hi all
I want to find an enhancement for Equipment master data. I want to add some customer fields to Equipment data,but i can't find the enhancement.Anybody tell me the Enhancement which be useful for that. thanks.
BR
Chris.Hi,
you can add new tab on the screen and provide your custom field on that tab. You have to add a new tab for any Technical Object by doing some configuration changes in SPRO. first go to SPRO and in screen sequences add a new tab sequence against the profile. Now in the function group SAPLXTOB you can see this new tab screen. Do your requirements on this screen.
Reward if useful and get back to me if you need any help.
Thanks,

ABC indicator in PM equipment master data
Hi expert,
Can anyone explain about ABC indicator functionality in PM equipment master data
Thanks
Rgds,Hi Michael,
As per Application help, ABC indicator signifies:
An indicator that is assigned by the procedure of ABC analysis.
The following ABC indicators are possible:
A - Important
B - Less important
C - Relatively unimportant
According to these criteria, "A" materials are those materials that are of greatest importance for the production operations of a company.
Examples of use for ABC indicators are vendor master records, material master records, and master records of technical objects.
You can customize the values in ABC indicator as per your requirement.

Migration of Equipment Master Data together with PRT data
Hello Experts,
we need to migrate Equipment Master Data which have activated the view PRT data. Most of the fields in this view are stored in table CRFH. Is there a way to migrate Equipment Master Data together with the PRT data of the Equipment? All the BAPI's I found do not have an import structure for those fields. Is a batch-input the only way?
Does anybody know a mass change transaction for Equipments?
Thank you and Regards
ChristianHi Krishna,
You can use the standard batch input program RFBIDE00 in LSMW to update the customer master data. However, there might be scenarios where you might be required to update the fields which do not get updated by the standard bacth input program. If any of such fields are defined as mandatory, then you wont be able to use this method directly.
In such cases you will have to either create a recording to poplate the fields which do not get updated by the standard program and use both the recording and the standard batch input program to update the customer master data OR create a recording for customer master create and use the same in LSMW.
Best regards,

Technical ID of Equipment Master Data
Hi Experts,
We have maintain tech ID in equipment Master Data.What we are doing we are keep replacing the tech ID for same equipment No (While replacing the equipment ). Now i want to trace the usage of tech ID.I mean to say i want to trace in how many equipment i have used the same tech ID No. Can anybody tell me how can i trace the same.
AR
Edited by: Amit Rana on Aug 17, 2009 1:17 PMhi
i think you can have one Tech ID for one equipment which will be useful for tracking ,if you want one equipment with different Tech ID then you can use the method i specified earlier.
in the usage list you can find the Tech ID validity from and to ,from which you can trace.and you can create an querry for table display of EQUZ where user can specify the Tech ID and get the output for equipment no

Maintenance & operation costcentre in equipment master data
We are going to create some equipment related to equipment categories Mechanical (M) & Electrical (E)(Both categories are related to maintenance equipments. And we have two cost centre one for Maintenance (12900 ) & second for operation (12901 ).Kindly suggest me out of these two which one should be default cost centre in equipment master data.
ARHi
you are booking all your expences on the asset correct i.e on equipment
equipment is run by operations
so the master Data should contain only operation cost enter
As per as budgeting is concern
you should give yearly budgeting to Operations
based on their total expenses is nothing but operation Budget +Maint budget
so the workcenter which you are using that activity type is calacultaed based on cost in Kp26

Issue: Archiving and Deleting completed Processes from GP Administration
Hi
IWe want to delete the completed processes from every users "Completed Processes' List. For this ,
In GP administration-> Archiving and Deleting-> Maintain Process templates->Global Settings,
We set 1 day for completed tasks.
So , after one day,will it remove all the completed processes or only the processes which were completed after setting the Archiving in Global settings?
How can I delete all the completed Processes?
Thanks
SmithaHi Smitha,
Basically, there are two ways in which you can delete processes in <b>GP administration-> Archiving and Deleting</b>:
1. automatically, through the <b>Maintain Process Templates</b> option
2. manually, through the <b>Begin Archiving</b> option - there you have to ignore the predefined settings and set a date before which you want to delete processes.
You should delete manually all processes up to now that were not deleted by the automatic scheduling. After that, all newly completed processes should be deleted promptly as you have specified in the global settings.
Make sure that you also perform the appropriate settings for the archive store and the home path.
You can check the documentation at: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/be/67a53d874f46c4b9a25e6e7d16a243/frameset.htm">Process Archive Management</a>.

Can we use idoc technique to change or delete the vendor master data?
Hi,gurus,
Can we use idoc technique to change or delete the vendor master data?You know we can create vendor data using idoc CREMAS03 as the receiver adapter,but when change or delete the specified vendor data,must we use RFC adapter technique?
Another question:I found the bapi which creates a vendor master data doesn't have the parameter account group,then we turned to idoc technique.But which adapter should I use when change or delete the vendor data?
Thanks in advance.Hi,
>>>I found the field of the segment of deletion flag at different level,and very appreaciate your help.

Equipment Master data changing automatically
Dear All,
this is weird but our SAP system is changing equipment's master data once it is created.
we have blocked all the possible chances of using T code "IE02-EQUIPMENT MASTER DATA CHANGE" at user end.
we are finding it very difficult to track because every time the equipment's action log displays new SAP ID's . we have checked with same ID but any where it is not possible for that user to have an authorization for IE02
it mainly changes the master data such as description/Manufacturer/Model number etc into some weird information. and this is happening at any time where in some cases it has been found that at 3:00 am or 4:00 am. we had also checked any background job is running at same timing but we couldn't found out any such case and this is happening without any prior notice so it is difficult for us also to monitor the same
if you have gone through same experience please share with us.
thanks
kiranKiran,
I fee that you must investigate through table CDHDR. Run Tcode SE16 --> Give value CDHDR --> Enter.
Here input values as under ( OBJECTCLAS, OBJECTID, USERNAME) and Execute.
In the output, you observe the values of fields TCODE, UDATE. You will come to know whether these changes are happening through IE02 or some other Tcode.
Also you should try without giving the USERNAME also. In this case you will get the lines of both normal changes and surprise change also in the output, where you are likely to find out what is happening.
In a similar way, you can investigate through table CDPOS also.

Dear PM Experts,
I m facing a problem regarding equipments Master data display.
When I used t-code ih01 after getting the list of technical object when I click any of the technical object, in equipment master data structure tab I can see the functional location and superior equipment
But when I m seeing the same equipment No. through IE03 I m not able to see the functional location or superior equipment in structure tab.
One more difficulty hw to see the changes history effectively because when I see the changes history Extra---- Display Changes.there are no. of entry at a single time for example at 15:10:05 ( 15 hrs 10 min. & 05 sec ) there are ten changes in old value H & New value D . What it means please explain.
RCDear Pete,
I got the answer
1.In Ih01 Valid date i was taking in past so it was showing the past history of equipment.
2.whenever I m dismantling any functional location it is showing multiple changes at a single time.
